    The Penguin Russian Classics (Routledge, 2021), underpins her discussion here and adds historical context.The translators are grouped in pairs, presented in four chapters.The introduction explains McAteer's theoretical orientation, which "relies on an extension of the sociological turn (inspired by Pierre Bourdieu and Pascale Casanova at the end of the 1990s) to the realm of Gender Studies" (p. 1).McAteer is less interested in the literary texts …

  • Maidens in Childbirth

    Open AccessSusanne FussoARTICLESlavic Review1995References: 6

    When Jesus confronts the man possessed by demons in the eighth chapter of Luke, a collective, alien voice issues from the familiar human form: "And Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? And he said, Legion: because many devils were entered into him" (Luke 8:30). Dostoevskii's novel The Devils (Besy, 1871-1873), to which the continuation of this passage serves as epigraph, makes use of the rich metaphor of possession in many aspects: as madne…

  • Designing Dead Souls

    Milton Ehre, Susanne FussoARTICLEThe Slavic and East European…1994

    This strikingly original work presents an integral and inclusive explanatory model for the elusive narrative strategies of Gogol's Dead Souls; in the process, it draws larger conclusions about Gogol's creative methods and aesthetic concerns.

The auth…

  • Mertvye Dushi

    Open AccessSusanne FussoARTICLESlavic Review1990Cited by: 1References: 3

    Literary history has to some extent spoiled our apprehension of the work we know as Mertvye dushi. Thanks to the author's letters, his friends' memoirs, and the carefully assembled fragments of his projected sequel, we cannot escape the awareness that Nikolai Gogol' left the novel incomplete, unachieved.1 In fact, however, when viewed in the context of other works by Gogol', this "unfinished" novel is marked by a special type of closure and forma…
